For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

The blobfish, once considered the ugliest animal in the world, has since had quite the redemption arc. Years after it was ...

The challenges of connecting molecular changes to tissue structure and highlights the potential of multifractal frameworks to quantify complex biological patterns ...

Researchers have developed synthetic genes that function like the genes in living cells. The artificial genes can build intracellular structures through a cascading sequence that builds ...

New research details the subcellular structures in neurons that enable signals to be transmitted from where they are received at specific sites on dendrites to the decision-making cell body located ...

Stem cells are one of the few cell types within the body that have the ability to both self-renew and produce cells that develop into more specialized cell types which eventually built up a functional ...

Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many components of the cell still remain uncharted. "We know each of the proteins ...

Digital camera images of the entire body (top left) and dorsal mantle (top right) of a squid show the splotches’ blue, green, yellow, orange and red iridescent (angle-dependent) colors. An individual ...
